PURPOSE. Esthetic expectations have increased the use of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) clasps as alternatives to Cr-Co in removable partial dentures (RPDs). The objective of this study was to evaluate the retentive force and dimensional change of clasps with different thickness and undercut made from PEEK by the thermo-mechanical fatigue. MATERIALS AND METHODS. PEEK clasps (N = 48) with thicknesses of 1 or 1.50 mm and 48 premolar monolithic zirconia crowns with undercuts of 0.25 mm or 0.50 mm were fabricated. Samples are divided into four groups (C1-C4) and were subjected to 7200 thermal aging cycles (at 5 - 55℃). The changes in the retentive force and dimensions of the clasps were measured by micro-stress testing and micro-CT devices from five measurement points (M1 - M5). One-way ANOVA, paired t-test, two-way repeated ANOVA, and post-hoc tests were used to analyze the data (P < .05). RESULTS. The retentive forces of C1, C2, C3, and C4 groups in initial and final test were found to be 4.389-3.388 N, 4.67 - 3.396 N, 5.161 - 4.096 N, 5.459 - 4.141 N, respectively. The effects of retentive force of all PEEK clasps groups were significant decreased. Thermo-mechanical cycles caused significant dimensional changes at points with M2, M4, and M5, and abraded the clasp corners and increased the distance between the ends of the clasp, resulting in reduced retentive forces (P^* = .016, P^* = .042, P < .001, respectively). CONCLUSION. Thermo-mechanical aging decreases the retentive forces in PEEK clasps. Increasing the thickness and undercut amount of clasps decreases the amount of dimensional change. The values measured after aging are within the clinically acceptable limits.

본 연구는 카약 K-1 1000m 경기에서 우수선수 그룹과 비우수선수 그룹의 랩타임을 비교 분석한 후 경기력 향상을 위한 페이스 조절 전략에 대한 조언을 하기 위해 실시되었다. 1000m 전체 경기구간을 100m 씩 10개 구간으로 나누어 측정한 후, 200m 단위로 랩타임을 분석하였다. 측정은 엘리트 카약 선수 12명을 대상으로 실시하였으며, 최종 기록 순위를 기준으로 A그룹(최상위 그룹), B그룹(차상위 그룹), C그룹(차하위 그룹), D그룹(최하위 그룹)으로 나누어 그룹별-구간별 랩타임을 분석하였으며, 이를 위해 반복측정분석, 일원변량분석, 상관분석을 실시하였다. A vs. C, B vs. C 그룹 간 스타트 구간(0~200m)과 스퍼트 구간(800~1000m)은 차이가 나지 않았으나, 200~400m, 400~600m 구간에서 랩타임 차이가 유의하게 났다. D그룹은 전 구간에서 전반적으로 경기력이 떨어졌다. 비우수선수의 경우, 중간 구간에서의 랩타임 기록 향상을 위한 페이스 조절 전략 수정이 필요하다.

자가부식 상아질 접착제의 중합 후 시간 경과에 따른 접착강도의 변화를 관찰하고, 중합률의 영향을 평가하고자 하였다. 36개의 상하악 대구치를 Single Bond (SB, 3M ESPE, USA), Clearfil SE Bond (SE, Kuraray, Japan), Xeno-III (XIII, Dentsply, Germany), 및 Adper Prompt (AP, 3M ESPE, USA)를 적용하는 4군으로 나누고, 이를 다시 미세인장접착강도 측정 시점에 따라 22$^{\circ}$C의 증류수에 보관 후 48시간에 측정한 군과 7일 후 측정한 군, 및 접착된 시편을 5000회 열순환을 시행하고 측정한 군으로 나누었다. 모래시계 형태의 접착시편을 제작하여 만능시험기 (Model 4466; Instron Co., USA)로 1 mm/min의 하중속도 하에서 미세인장접착강도를 측정하였다. 접착제의 중합률은 Fourier 변환 적외선 분광법을 이용하여 중합 직후, 48시간, 1주일에 측정하였으며, 주사전자현미경을 이용하여 파절 단면을 관찰하였다. 미세인장접착강도와 중합률 모두 시간의 경과에 따라 유의한 증가를 보였으며, 시간 경과와 재료간에 교호작용이 있었다 (미세인장접착강도, 2-way ANOVA, p = 0.018; 중합률, Repeated Measures ANOVA, p < 0.001) . XIII와 AP의 낮은 미세인장접착강도는 낮은 중합률 때문임을 확인할 수 있었다. 48시간 이후에 SE와 AP에서 접착강도가 증가 되는 것은 중합률과는 관련이 없고, 전자현미경에서 관찰되는 접착제층의 성숙에 따른 취성의 증가가 원인일 가능성이 제기된다.

A nebumetone tablet in development $(Navuton^R)$ was tested for its bioequivalence to the erference tablet $(Uniton^R)$. Seventeen healthy Korean male subjects participated in this study. Each subject received a 1-g dose of nabumetone (2tables each) in an unbalanced, randomized, two-way crossover investigation. Serum concentrations of 6-methoxy-2-na-phthylacetic acid (6-MNA), a major metabolite of nebumetone, were measured over 120 hr interval by a high-performance liquid chromatography. The maximum serum concentration $(C_{max})$ and time to reach the maximum concentration$(T_{max})$ were read directly, but area under the serum concentration time curve from time 0 to 120 hr (AUC) and mean residence time serum curves showed multiple peaks of 6-MNA in most subjects, and the $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$ were read from the highest serum peaks. calculated bioavailability parameters for test and reference tablets were 148.6 : 1377.9 $\mug \cdot hr/ml$ for AUC; 25.2:23.1 $\mu/ml$ for $C_{max}$; 11.8:16.4 hr for $T_{max}$, and 42.6 : 43.8 hr for MRT, respectively. The paired t-test revealed no significant differences in all the parameters between the two tablets. Analysis ofl variance (ANOVA) revealed no significant differences between groups and formulations in all the parameters ($C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$, AUC and MRT) indicating the crossover design of the experiment was properly performed. But significant differences (p<0.05) between subject/groups and periods were found for all the parameters indicating substantial intersubject and interperiodic variations for these parameters.

In this work, desalination experiments were performed on vacuum membrane distillation (VMD). Process parameters such as feed flow rate, vacuum degree on permeate side, feed bulk temperature and feed salt concentration were optimized using sensitivity analysis and Taguchi method. The optimum values of process parameters were found to be 2 lpm of feed flow rate, $60^{\circ}C$ of feed bulk temperature, 5.5 kPa of permeate-side pressure and 5000 ppm of salt concentration. The permeate flux at these conditions was obtained as $26.6kg/m^2{\cdot}hr$. The rejection of salt in permeate was found to be 99.7%. The percent contribution of various process parameters using ANOVA results indicated that the most important parameter is feed bulk temperature with its contribution of 95%. The ANOVA results indicate that the percent contribution of permeate pressure gets increased to 5.384% in the range of 2 to 7 kPa as compared to 0.045% in the range of 5.5 to 7 kPa.

The purpose of this study was to statistically analyze amylose and protein content of rice variety resources collected from China (1,542), Japan (1,409), Korea (413), and India (287). The statistical analysis was conducted using ANOVA and DMRT based on the data obtained from NIRS analysis. The average amylose contents were 18.85% in Japanese, 19.99% in Korean, 20.27% in Chinese, and 25.46% in Indian resources. The average protein contents were 7.23% in Korean, 7.73% in Japanese, 8.01% in Chinese, and 8.17% in Indian resources. The amylose and protein content using ANOVA showed significant differences at the level of 0.01. The F-test for amylose content was 158.34, and for protein content was 53.95 compared to critical value 3.78. The amylose and protein content using DMRT (p<0.01) showed significant difference between countries. The value of statistical treatment was divided into three groups such as $China^a$, $Korea^a$, $Japan^b$, $India^c$ in amylose and $China^a$, $India^a$, $Japan^b$, $Korea^c$ in protein. Japanese resources had the lowest level of amylose contents, whereas, the lowest level of protein content was found in Korean resources compared to other origins. Indian resources showed the highest level of amylose and protein contents. It is recommended that these results could be helpful to future breeding experiments.

A study on the micro particle blasting was conducted to find the optimum conditions of the blasted surface of aluminum 6061. The particle type such as $Al_2O_3$ and SiC, nozzle diameter, pressure, standoff distance and injection time were used as blasting conditions. Statistical method of orthogonal arrays(ANOVA) was used to find optimum conditions of maximum depth and maximum diameter of blasted surface. Particle type, nozzle diameter, and pressure were found to be the main factors of maximum blasted depth and diameter. Maximum blasted diameter was affected by increasing pressure and nozzle diameter but saturated maximum diameter. Maximum blasted depth was affected by pressure and nozzle diameter when aluminum 6061 was blasted with $Al_2O_3$ particle. The value of surface roughness was increased as pressure and nozzle diameter increased when aluminum 6061 was blasted with SiC.

The microleakage of direct-access Class 2 restorations was evaluated. Cavities were prepared at mesial and distal proximal enamel surfaces of 20 extracted human molars through buccal window. Prepared cavities were filled with Ketac-Fil, Ketac-Silver, and Fuji II LC, following manufacturer's instructions. 4 specimens of each restorations were made through sectioning 1/4 of bucco-lingual length mesio-distally after thermocycling between $5^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$ and imerging 0.5% basic-fuchsin dye solution. Leakage at both occlusal and gingival margin of each specimen was scored 0 to 3 with stereomicroscope. The results were as follows: 1. At occlusal margin, leakage in Ketac-Fil group was more than Ketac-Silver and Fuji II LC group (ANOVA p<0.05) and there was no significant difference between Ketac-Silver and Fuji II LC group(p>0.05), and at gingival margin, there was no significant difference amang materials (p>0.05). 2. Occlusal margin leaked more than gingival margin in Ketac-Silver and Fuji II LC group (t-test p<0.05). 3. Leakage was different according to bucco-lingual location in Ketac-Fil and Fuji II LC group, and lingaul specimen exhibited more leakage(ANOVA p<0.05).
